An Original Vintage Herald (measures 4 3/4" x 7 1/2" [12 x 19 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) a 1933 local theater herald advertising the complete program for January 1st to the 7th, at the Riviera, which included the following movies: Trouble in Paradise, the classic 1932 Ernst Lubitsch Paris France romantic love triangle crime comedy (written by Samson Raphaelson) starring Miriam Hopkins (as Lily), Kay Francis (as Madame Mariette Colet), Herbert Marshall (as Gaston Monescu), Charlie Ruggles (as The Major), Edward Everett Horton (as Francois Filiba), C. Aubrey Smith (as Adolph J. Giron), and Leonid Kinskey (as The Communist). While this movie is not well known nowadays except by film buffs, most of those would agree that it is in the handful of finest romantic comedies ever made. If you want to see what made classic movies so much better than present day movies, watch this one! AND The Most Dangerous Game (also released in England as "Hounds of Zaroff"), the 1932 Irving Pichel & Ernest B. Schoedsack mystery adventure horror thriller ("Fascinating, strange and terrible is the story of Zaroff, who hunted men like animals for a sporting thrill"; '"The finest specimens I ever killed"'; based on Richard Connell's "The Most Dangerous Game", one of many movies based on this classic story!) starring Joel McCrea, Fay Wray, Leslie Banks (as Zaroff), Robert Armstrong, and Noble Johnson. Note that this movie was filmed simultaneously with "King Kong", so many of the actors, sets, and sound effects from King Kong were used in this movie! Also note that Leslie Banks was a distinguished English stage actor who made his first movie appearance in this most unusual movie (the IMDb claims he was in a 1921 movie, but we don't know that that is accurate, and he surely did not have a leading role)! AND Six Hours to Live, the 1932 William Dieterle science fiction (sci-fi) crime mystery thriller ("What would you do if you had only six hours to live?"; "From Original Story 'Auf Wiedersehen' by Gordon Morris & Morton Barteaux"; about a murder victim who is brought back to life by a science experiment that only lasts for 6 hours) starring Warner Baxter, Miriam Jordan, John Boles, George F. Marion, and Halliwell Hobbes AND Girls About Town, the 1931 George Cukor gold-diggers romantic love triangle comedy (a very convoluted story of gold diggers Francis and Tashman, who get involved with rich men to extort money from them; Tashman causes Pallette to start divorcing his wife, and then she helps the wife win her husband back!; meanwhile, Francis falls in love with McCrea, who doesn't believe she really loves him, so she does everything she can to convince him) starring Kay Francis, Joel McCrea, Lilyan Tashman, Eugene Pallette, Allan Dinehart, Lucile Browne, and Louise Beavers AND Too Busy to Work, the 1932 John G. Blystone post-World War I (WWI) soldier-turned-hobo romantic family comedy ("From the story 'Jublio' by Ben Ames Williams", a remake of the 1918 Will Rogers silent, "Jubilo") starring Will Rogers, Marian Nixon, Dick Powell (in his third movie role!), Louise Beavers, and Frederick Burton. Some of the other films in this herald include: Pathe News, China Night, Chandu the Magician, I am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang, and That's My Boy. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
